As a general rule, there is a direct correlation between the number of cameras in production and the complexity in the project workflow. Luckily, innovations are allowing production companies to improve the efficiency of their workflows, even when there are hundreds of cameras in use.

No matter the type of content—a Studio multicam project or Live Event in HD or 4K – Cinedeck’s Multicam workflows offer significant advantages for post-production flexibility with limitless options, delivering both speed and versatility to streamline the camera to post pipeline.

Advantages of the Cinedeck Multicam Platform

Designed with years of feedback from a wide range of industry stakeholders—EICs, producers, editors, technicians, facility owners—Cinedecks are ingest and encoding platforms optimized for multi-cam production, post-production, and finishing applications. Addressing the needs of day-to-day production realities and post-production workflows, Cinedecks efficiently eliminate the gaps and impediments challenging these processes to provide a clear path from lens to edit-ready files on your server, simplifying multi-cam production.

With Cinedecks, you can easily create edit-ready low-resolution files faster by encoding master and proxy concurrently across multiple channels. Further, by matching metadata across all channels, you can ensure effortless matchback between your edited low-res timeline and your master encodes. And for editing in Avid, rather than running files through AMA prior to editing, each Cinedeck encode of master and proxy also includes an AAF, allowing for drag and drop functionality. Cinedecks deliver all the features necessary to dramatically streamline workflows at a much lower price point than similar competitor tools.

Cinedeck Empowers Production

FNTECH, a Toronto-based production rental company is a growing name in delivering cutting-edge workflow solutions to some of the most complex production workflows. Big Brother Canada, for example, uses more than 100 cameras that run 24/7 for over 72 days. They wholly rely on Cinedeck recorders to deliver media to editorial quickly.

Cinedeck’s Master/Proxy record feature allows FNTECH to meet Big Brother’s delivery schedule while writing Avid Native files directly to ISIS, resulting in a No-Transcode workflow. (Read more about the Big Brother Workflow here)

FNTECH’s President said, “Cinedeck’s top-of-the-line products give producers the speed, efficiency and security they demand as they entrust their multi-million dollar productions to us.”

Serie A stays with CBS one more year, plans U.S. bid after World Cup

Serie A and CBS Sports exercised a mutual one-year option keeping the league’s U.S. rights on CBS Sports platforms through the 2026-27 season, Sports Business Journal reported, with most matches on Paramount+. Terms are believed unchanged from a 2024 renewal in the low eight figures, down from about $75M a year in 2021. The league plans to sell again after the World Cup.

  • 01Serie A's U.S. rights went from about $75M a year under the 2021 CBS deal to a low eight-figure renewal in 2024, according to SBJ, which described the drop as a significant financial haircut amid a softer market for European soccer rights.
  • 02The Bundesliga, represented by Relevent Sports under a 17-year partnership, is also in the market with its English- and Spanish-language U.S. rights beginning in 2026-27 after its ESPN deal expired, according to SBJ, while Serie A sells direct with no agency.
  • 03Serie A's Spanish-language U.S. deal with Fox Deportes has already expired, so a Spanish partner is an open item alongside the English package when the league returns to market after the World Cup.

The Mariners made 2026 digital shorts without an agency as MLB clubs bring video production in-house

The Seattle Mariners produced all four of their 2026-season video shorts in-house after decades with agency Copacino Fujikado, Sports Business Journal reports. Most MLB clubs now handle the bulk of video production internally. Zoomph values the Dodgers' 2025 team social output at $101 million in paid-ad equivalent, a benchmark for avoided spend, not revenue collected.

  • 01Zoomph's $101 million figure for the Dodgers is the estimated cost of buying the same reach with paid ads, so the right comparison for an in-house studio is avoided media spend against staff and equipment, not agency fees alone.
  • 02The edge MLB creative teams describe is access to talent from the minor leagues up, which means the in-house model transfers well to organizations whose creative staff sit near the people they film and poorly to those that don't.
  • 03Clubs look at whether a short can carry beyond a single post—feeding a giveaway, theme night, or ticket special—and use real-time fan reaction to judge concepts quickly. If it sparks those longer-life assets it’s more than a one-off, even if views are high.

MLS explores eight-figure presenting sponsorship ahead of 'MLS 3.0'

MLS explores eight-figure presenting sponsorship ahead of 'MLS 3.0'

Major League Soccer has retained London-based Altius8 to explore selling a league-wide presenting sponsorship, Sportico reported on September 18. Early talks have landed in the eight figures, which sources told Sportico would sit behind only the Apple and Adidas deals, and MLS says it won’t rename the league. The exploration comes as MLS prepares changes next summer to its calendar, playoffs and commissioner.

  • 01An eight-figure presenting deal would sit behind Apple’s $2.5 billion media agreement and Adidas’s $830 million extension through 2030—and ahead of other major league-wide deals—offering a rare public price band for a U.S. league-level asset.
  • 02MLS is deliberately splitting the European model: it wants the presenting-sponsor revenue LaLiga, Ligue 1 and Serie A collect, without putting a brand name in front of the league the way the Premier League did with Barclays until 2016.
  • 03The asset list is not fixed. Chief revenue officer Carter Ladd says there is no predefined package, so what a bidder gets, and whether the league-wide jersey patch is on the table, is being decided now.
